I love to bake but sometimes I think my waistline could do without it. There’s nothing wrong with a little cake, but if I can make it a little lighter I will. I’m not a huge fan of over complicated recipes that ask for strange ingredients to make it healthier. Also I’m a little bored…

Slow Cooked Lamb Ragu
I’m not sure about you, but I was getting ready for Autumn by getting my cardigans out and secretly thinking about Christmas. And then boom. Summer! Glorious sunshine sent me into a blind panic to find my sunglasses and shorts. It was absolutely beautiful and although brief, I am grateful for the few days of…
Pan Fried Sea Bass, Spicy Cannellini Beans and Fresh Basil Pesto
I took a trip to the Mediterranean this week, but only went as far as my kitchen. I am craving a holiday so much. I miss trying new foods and learning about new cultures. One of my favourite places to visit is Italy. The food there is so fresh and inviting, and its not all…
Coconut, Raspberry and Hazelnut Brownies
I absolutely love to bake. There’s something very special about mixing a few ingredients, popping it in the oven and seeing it transform into something warm and delicious. I used to bake a lot but recently struggle to find the time to do so. I have been attending lots of weddings and have been eating…
Paneer Burger
It’s been a little while since I’ve cooked something up for my blog. With lockdown ending, work getting busier and a toddler, life seems to be very busy! It’s been great though, we can finally see our families and friends and feel a sense of normality. I’ve slowly found the courage to eat out recently…
Barfi Bites
How amazing do these Barfi bites look? I can safely say I didn’t make them, but ordered them from a local company called Barfi Bites who specialise in making luxury Barfi coated in Belgian chocolate. Incredible! For those of you who don’t know, Barfi is a traditional Indian sweet made from milk powder and can…
Chicken Tostadas
Did somebody say Mexican food? Yes please. Mexican food is so exciting. I love all the colours and textures and how it can bring people together. My husband and I are always eating tacos, fajitas, enchiladas etc but sometimes it can get repetitive. So this time I decided to try something a little different. What…
Wild Garlic and Smoked Salmon Fishcakes
Wild garlic is in season and seems to be the craze right now. And so it should be, its delicious! I’m lucky enough to have a mother in law who planted some wild garlic in my garden and it’s growing so well. No thanks to me, I have zero gardening skills. Maybe one day I…
Homemade Sushi and Edamame Beans
I’ve always loved sushi but I’ve never tried making it at home. It’s something I always thought was best eaten in a restaurant or from a store. I saw this Yutaka Sushi Roll Kit in Sainsbury’s and I thought why not, it sounded like fun. This kit was brilliant. Everything was so easy and had…
Chorizo Arancini
Risotto is one of our common weekday meals, but I always make too much. Always! So instead of just eating it for lunch the next day, I thought I would make arancini. Arancini is risotto shaped into balls, coated in breadcrumbs and then deep fried. But I didn’t want to deep fry mine so I…
